ABSTRACT

@#AIM: To investigate the clinical application value of anterior segment OCT(AS-OCT)in diagnosis and treatment of descemet's membrane detachment(DMD)after intraocular surgery. <p>METHODS: Totally 23 eyes of 21 patients with corneal edema after intraocular surgery in our hospital from June 2016 to April 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. The degree of corneal edema and the descemet's membrane detachment(DMD)were observed by AS-OCT. The patients with mild or above descemet's membrane detachment were treated with anterior chamber gas tamponade, the patients with other corneal edema were treated with drug conservative treatment, and the corneal edema and adhesion of descemet's membrane were observed.<p>RESULTS: In this study, 21 patients(23 eyes)had corneal edema of different degrees, 14 eyes with descemet's membrane detachment,11 eyes with mild or above descemet's membrane detachment were re-examined by AS-OCT one day after anterior chamber gas tamponade. 10 eyes had good adhesion, 1 eye had poor adhesion, and the adhesion was good after anterior chamber gas tamponade again. After 1mo follow-up, the cornea of all the patients recovered to be transparent and their vision recovered well.<p>CONCLUSION:AS-OCT can timely and accurately diagnose and evaluate descemet's membrane detachment and its therapeutic effect.
